Free Rum !

Feature rarity this week is by 70s Belgian band RUM, with some tracks from their 1974 LP “Rum 2”, as included on the 2005 compilation “Rum 1972 – 1978”. The trio played a variety of music such as traditional, Renaissance, Italian et al, in a then-contemporary style that still stands up well today.

Also featured will be a couple of MADDY PRIOR-related recordings: the 2012 album “3 For Joy” that she recorded with Hannah James (Lady Maisery) and Giles Lewin (Carnival Band, Bellowhead) – and a track from the brand new STEELEYE SPAN CD “Wintersmith”, based on the book of the same name by Terry Pratchett.
